Window

Standing at the open window
Hoping that it starts to rain
The sun shines way to bright
I close my eyes to escape the pain
I wanted things to be different
I wanted myself to change
But when things got so much harder
All my efforts went down the drain
Standing at the open window
Hoping that it starts to rain
The sun shines way to bright
I close my eyes to escape the pain
No fog, no wind, no snow to hide me
Out in the open like the wings of a crane
Hoping that the lord forgives me
To create this world maybe he's insane
My body doesn't react to warmth or blessing
It sits there dull like a dead lion's mane
Standing at the open window
Hoping my tears can hide in the rain
